Description

"This superb expression of the noble Barbera of the Langhe comes from a small vineyard in Roddino at almost 500 metres of altitude. Intense color and structure for this full-bodied red. Characterized by a ripe fruit fragrance, this Barbera is perfect for ageing. Refined for 2 Years in the cellar and produced in very small quantity, only 4.000 bottles."

A bouquet of cherries, plums and figs meets a light spiciness that energizes the mix. Full-bodied and rich, its acidity makes it perfect for long bottle ageing.

Gigi Rosso winery sits in Castiglione Falletto, in the heart of Barolo land. It carries the name of its founder Gigi, one of Barolo’s and Langhe pioneers. The next generation, Maurizio and his son Andreas are now managing Gigi Rosso winery. The passage to the second and third generation brings energy and new ideas to the business. As Gigi expressed in his own words: “I was born in the vineyards. I grew up in the vineyards. And the vineyards are my heart and soul. The Langhe are my home. This land gave me a very precious gift. As a thank you, every year, I harvest its fruits and look after them like a mother looks after her babies. They call me enologist, they say I’m a wine expert, they refer to me as a pioneer. But there’s only one truth: when nature speaks I listen. My land tells a unique story and I’m always listening”.
